Description
Black and white 9 1/2″ x 13″ ad for their Hercules C-130 Transport. The picture shows the plane flying along followed by several parachutes safely dropping up to 25,000 pounds of combat cargo to a precise location. The text explains that previously the biggest problem with dropping emergency supplies was the wide range that it all landed. With this plane the entire load of supplies can be dropped in a matter of seconds assuring a smaller area in which to look for your equipment. The text also claims that this plane has 19 times the power that the transports used in World War II had assuring deliveries faster, farther and more economically.
